Today’s story is about Lulu Chase, an image consultant from San Francisco who once dressed mid-level tech execs... but secretly wanted more. Private clients. Real wealth. True influence. Her turning point? A coat. And a chance conversation that reframed her entire business. In this episode, we unpack: Why the wealthy don’t hire for skill—they hire for signal . The subtle art of repositioning without rebranding. How one wardrobe shift led to a client roster of discreet billionaires and powerful women behind the scenes.
